Yeah, me neither...but you might might to pull out the thinking cap...

Many of you reading this are fellow "readers" (like moi), however there are also many aspiring writer's amongst you (unlike moi...at least at the moment). A few weeks ago when going through the bookish goodness in my mailbox, I came upon an ARC gem sent to me by the folks over at Workman Publishing. Since it's arrival, it has reached that coveted "published" status but alas, it's simply not a title for my own reading/reviewing interests...though I think it might be for some of YOU. The way I figure it, why let a good book sit unread? So...calling all aspiring authors...this one's for YOU!

The prize...

(1) ARC of The Essential Guide to Getting Your Book Published by Arielle Eckstut and David Henry Sterry

Hi! I'm passing on the Stylish Blogger Award to you. If you don't do awards, that's ok. I just wanted you to know I enjoy your blog. If you do, you can visit me at Tribute Books Mama to find out what to do for the award.

As for a resolution...I've got a few, but most exciting would be my hope that a business idea will pan out eventually helping my hubby to work from home like he would like to. We'll see. *Fingers crossed* and nose to the good old grind stone!

Thank you for the book! It is loaded in information. I've been trying to figure out the ebook world, so this is perfect.I wrote a little post about it.http://www.intentionalconsciousparenting.com/2011/01/im-winner.htmlThanks again, Carol
